๐Ÿ’ฐ Why Does Medicare Supplement Plan G Keep Getting More Expensive?

Plan G is one of the most popular Medicare Supplement plans for a reason. The coverage is excellent, there are no provider networks, and after the annual Part B deductible, your Medicare-approved medical expenses are generally very predictable.

But thereโ€™s a problem Iโ€™m hearing about constantly:

The premiums keep climbing.

And some of the increases we've seen recently have been significant.

What many people don't realize is that all Plan G policies provide the same standardized medical benefitsโ€”but what you pay can vary dramatically depending on the insurance company, where you live, and even how the policy is priced.

In my latest guide, I break down:

โœ“ What Plan G actually covers
โœ“ What it DOESN'T cover
โœ“ How insurance companies price Plan G
โœ“ Why premiums have been rising so quickly
โœ“ Why New York works differently
โœ“ Plan N and High-Deductible Plan G alternatives
โœ“ What to consider if your premium is getting uncomfortable

Plan G can still be an excellent choice. But great coverage doesn't automatically mean you should ignore the price.

If you're paying more every year, it's worth understanding exactly what you're paying forโ€”and what your alternatives are.

๐Ÿšจ Something very strange is happening with Medicare Advantage for 2027.

For most of my career, Medicare Advantage companies have spent October 15th through December 7th trying to enroll as many people as possible.

TV commercials. Mailers. Phone calls. Seminars. You name it.

Now, some plans may actually do the opposite โ€” and CLOSE enrollment once they reach their limit.

Think about that for a second.

You could find a Medicare Advantage plan you really like early in Annual Enrollment, decide to wait a few weeksโ€ฆand discover that the plan is no longer accepting new members.

And here's the frustrating part: there may not be some convenient little meter telling you, โ€œThis plan is 92% full.โ€

It could simply become unavailable for new enrollment.

For years, I've told people not to panic and rush into a Medicare decision just because AEP started. That's still good advice.

But 2027 adds a wrinkle we've never really had to deal with before:

๐Ÿ‘‰ The plan you want today may not necessarily be available later in AEP.

I broke down what's changing, why insurance companies would want to limit enrollment in the first place, and what Medicare beneficiaries should know before October 15th.

Some Medicare Advantage Plans Can Now Close Their Doors โ€” Here's What That Means for You

"That sounds too good to be true."

That's the reaction Jack Davis hears more than almost anything else when he tells people they can actually sell their life insurance policy for cash. ๐Ÿค”

And honestly? I get it. Most of us grew up believing a policy only pays out one way โ€” when you pass away. So the idea that you could sell it while you're still here, for real money, sounds like a scam.

But it's not. It's called a life settlement, it's a regulated transaction, and it's been around for decades โ€” most people just haven't heard of it because it's never been marketed to them.

In this clip, Jack talks about why this generation in particular is so skeptical of it, and why that skepticism is actually understandable โ€” even if it's costing people money they didn't know they had.

Did you know your life insurance policy might actually be worth cash today โ€” even if you don't need the coverage anymore? ๐Ÿ’ก

On this episode of Wise Guys Retirement Talk, I sat down with Jack Davis to break down two terms that get mixed up all the time: life settlements and viatical settlements.

Here's the simple version: ๐Ÿ”น A life settlement is when you sell a life insurance policy you no longer need or can't afford โ€” for more than the cash surrender value. ๐Ÿ”น A viatical settlement is similar, but it's for policyholders who are chronically or terminally ill.

Same idea, different situations โ€” and knowing the difference could mean thousands of dollars back in your pocket.

We talk through real examples, who qualifies, and the questions to ask before you ever consider dropping a policy.

Before you cancel a life insurance policy, get a second look. ๐Ÿ”

So many seniors walk away from policies they've paid into for years โ€” not realizing there might be another option. In this clip from my conversation with Jack Davis, we talk about why a quick second opinion could mean the difference between walking away with nothing and walking away with real value.

This isn't about a sales pitch. It's about making sure you actually understand your options before you make a decision you can't undo.
